US Antimony Authorizes $100 Million Share Buyback to Counter Market Discount

When Wall Street hands a critical minerals producer a steep discount, executive suites rarely take it lying down.

United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE: UAMY) is drawing a firm line in the sand, authorizing a massive $100 million share repurchase program to reclaim control of its market narrative after recent share price turbulence.

The decision, approved by unanimous board consent, gives management the green light to buy back outstanding common stock across open-market transactions, privately negotiated deals, and Rule 10b5-1 trading plans.

The authorization carries no fixed expiration date and places no obligation on United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE: UAMY) to acquire a set number of shares, granting the firm's Finance Committee complete discretion under SEC Rule 10b-18 guidelines. The aggressive signal of insider confidence follows an extensive internal evaluation of operational assets spanning the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gary C. Evans made the company’s stance clear following the board’s review, noting that after a thorough review of current activities and future potential, the board determined by unanimous consent that the stock was deemed to be undervalued and decided to implement the share repurchase program immediately.

This corporate buyback arrives as a direct counterpunch to recent equity headwinds. Shares of United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE: UAMY) faced selling pressure following second-quarter earnings, where top-line revenue reached $7.9 million and full-year 2026 revenue guidance was recalibrated to between $60 million and $75 million from a prior target of $125 million. Management attributed the short-term slowdown to delayed contract deliveries with the Defense Logistics Agency alongside temporary price weakness in antimony. Institutional coverage, however, remains constructive on long-term fundamentals. H.C. Wainwright & Co. analyst Heiko Ihle recently adjusted his price target to $9.25 while maintaining a Buy rating, highlighting that discounted trading levels fail to reflect the company's underlying critical mineral reserves.

Operating as the sole fully integrated antimony producer outside China and Russia, United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE: UAMY) holds a central position in Western supply chain security. Facilities in Montana and Mexico process raw ore into antimony oxide for flame retardants, antimony metal for storage batteries, and antimony trisulfide for military ammunition primers. Complementing its metallurgical operations, the enterprise mines industrial minerals through its Bear River Zeolite operations in Idaho for environmental filtration, while securing primary feedstock through expanded mining claims across Alaska, Montana, and Ontario.

This capital allocation strategy mirrors a growing sentiment across the critical materials landscape, where natural resource firms are leveraging balance sheets during temporary commodity pullbacks. Sector peer Almonty Industries (NASDAQ: ALM) recently pursued a similar capital return effort to shore up equity value. By backing its strategic vision with up to $100 million in capital allocation, United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE: UAMY) is making a clear bet that market prices will eventually align with the long-term value of North American mineral independence.
